That's absolutely fineAll we need to do is redefine the borders of "France" such that it returns to the Ile de France and loses suzerainity over Normandy and the Atlantic coast. It can negotiate with Germany and Spain over who has ownership of current-day South-West France. So long as there's a polity called "France" which is identifiably the descendent of the "France" that signed the treaty, all will be fine.
